    Tinker: Watch it with the generalities. I'm female, and can't think of anything that intimidates me. Kelli and Jerseygirl: Vote in this poll! There's safety in numbers.
  2. My ISP (MSN) has had server problems. And the first one to make a crack about dialup llamas goes on my kill list. (This means YOU, Tris!)
  3. If you're on dialup, don't save the password, and don't tell the kids what it is. Of course, this won't keep them off the net at a friend's computer.

  9. And all this time, I thought nitpicking was my job!
  10. Mary Clancy goes up to Father O'Grady's after his Sunday morning service, and she's in tears. He says, "So what's bothering you, Mary my dear?" She says, "Oh, Father, I've got terrible news. My husband passed away last night." The priest says, "Oh, Mary, that's terrible. Tell me, did he have any last requests?" She says, "That he did, Father..." The priest says, "What did he ask, Mary?" She says, "He said, 'Please Mary, put down that **** gun...'"
  11. Three Texas surgeons were arguing as to which had the greatest skill. The first began: "Three years ago, I reattached seven fingers on a pianist. He went on to give a recital for the Queen of England." The second replied: "That's nothing. I attended a man in a car accident. All his arms and legs were severed from his body. Two years after I reattached them, he won three gold medals for field events in the Olympics." The third said: "A few years back, I attended to a cowboy. He was high on cocaine and alcohol when he rode his horse head-on into a Santa Fe freight train traveling at 100 miles per hour. All I had to work with was the horse's a** and a ten gallon hat. Last year he became president of the United States."
  12. One night a cop was staking out a particularly rowdy bar for possible violations of DUI laws. At closing time, he saw a guy stumble out of the bar, trip on the curb and try his keys on five different cars before he found his. Then he sat in the driver's seat fumbling around with his keys for several minutes. Everyone else left the bar and drove off before he had even put his keys in the ignition. Finally, he started the engine and began to pull away. Chuckling at the pathetic driver, the cop stopped him, read him his rights and administered a Breathalyzer test. The result showed a reading of 0.0! The puzzled cop demanded to know how that was possible. The driver replied, "Tonight I am the designated decoy."
  13. at which time the rest of us will feel your postings.
  14. Amen, Zip and kelli, that's one with which I am way too familiar.

  17. Take that as a warning, guys. Don't mess!
  18. The SoloTrek XFV, which made its maiden "flight" in December 2001, is scheduled to go on sale Friday on eBay with a starting bid of about $50,000. The prototype has only hovered a few feet off the ground in tests. But it is built to zoom up to 69 mph for 100 miles, carrying a person who weighs up to 180 pounds. Two overhead ducted fans lift the gas-powered machine, and a standing operator steers with a joystick in each hand. "We didn't want to test it higher than we were willing to fall," Moshier said. Engineers at Trek Aerospace retired the prototype last summer to concentrate on a second-generation model with better joysticks and a smoother engine. The Sunnyvale-based company hopes to sell personal flying machines to the military, allowing soldiers to pass over swamps, mine fields and other rough terrain. The company is studying whether consumers would use its craft, which theoretically could ascend to 10,000 feet. The winner of the auction must sign a contract promising not to fly the prototype, to use it for exhibition only. Moshier expects to sell the aluminum and titanium machine to a museum or aviation enthusiast. "It's a different kind of aircraft," he said. "It has a tremendous amount of historical value." Source
